How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| LPG1! | Continued Iranian LPG exports add marginal supply to regional markets despite the blockade. | Down1-4w | At least eight LPG tankers reportedly left the Gulf of Oman carrying an estimated 4.1 million barrels in total. |
| CL=F | Partial continuation of Iranian petroleum-product exports modestly reduces the immediate supply-loss premium. | Down1-5d | Iran continued exporting LPG and jet fuel, although volumes remained far below prior levels. |
| STNG | Sanctions and blockade enforcement increase compliance, insurance and voyage-risk costs for product-tanker operators exposed to Iranian cargoes. | Up1-4w | Most identified tankers were already under US sanctions for transporting Iranian petroleum or petrochemical products. |
